So here we are, my husband and I, on our way to the Summer of Love/40 celebration in Golden Gate Park. None of our seven kids or seven grandkids wanted to go.
We drove in from the Central Valley, where we currently live/work, in a $25k vehicle with built in iPod dock (god, we hate living in Red California, but we need to make more money than we spend, and it isn't easy on the Peninsula)...
Stayed at a Palo Alto Hotel with koi pond outside the room (Palo Alto is home turf and they take our dog at the Sheraton)(Go Ducks)...
Had room service and watched "Meet the Press" (god, I hate Mary Matalin)...
Dressed in our tie-dyes (this is what we wear all the time, we haven't changed)...
Brushed out our (graying) afros and put on sunscreen (flower children do NOT want brown spots on their faces)...
And headed for Speedway Meadows!
